The drums beat loudly, the trumpets sound loudly, and the war flags fly...
The Wei army, under the command of Xia Houchen, was conducting a tentative attack on Yongchang Pass.
Catapults and crossbows were bombarding the city head indiscriminately, with some fire bombs also mixed in.
Rumble…
The sound of violent explosions shocked the city, smoke filled the air, and a heat wave swept across.
"Hahaha......"
Xia Houchen laughed loudly, "I have long wanted to test the power of fire bombs. The thing my consort has developed is good. Let me head towards the city and blast these bastards hard!"
Within the pass.
Xiao You, the eldest son of Prince Qi, looked at the city where smoke was rising, his brows furrowed and his face gloomy.
"Hasn't there been any news from the palace yet? What exactly is Father's plan?"
Xiao You turned to look at the deputy general on the side, his eyes were scarlet and he was gritting his teeth.
Xiao Wenmao actually transferred him out of Dongzhou Mansion when his dignified heir apparent had a conflict with a retainer of Prince Qi's Mansion. He really didn't know what Xiao Wenmao was thinking.
The deputy general shook his head, "There is no letter yet, but the general has already reported the situation of the battle ahead to the palace. I believe the prince will reply soon."
"well......"
Xiao You looked at the city that was being bombed and splashed around at any time, and sighed: "What will happen if we reply to the letter? Even Wuluo was defeated by Qin Yu, we are just stubbornly resisting!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the general's mansion. He really didn't want to guard this level for a moment. He was just waiting to die.
Xiao You is not a fool. Now the only chance for Dongzhou Prefecture is to take the sea route and flee to the end of the world as soon as possible.
at the same time.
Liu Qing had already led Qin Yu's group and two thousand black cavalry to replace the armor and battle flags of Pingzhou's fine cavalry.
With this outfit and Liu Qing's leadership, they can travel freely within Dongzhou.
Liu Qing looked at Qin Yu and said respectfully: "Prince-in-law, we can set off."
Although Liu Qing is young, he is very reliable in his work, and Qin Yu admires him very much.
"good."
Qin Yu nodded, "Then let's set off now."
Afterwards, everyone took a circuitous route and took a small road from the northwest toward Dongzhou.
Half a day later.
They came to a pass.
There are not many defenders at Wuguan, but the terrain is dangerous. It is built within a line of sky. One man is in charge of the pass, and ten thousand people can't open it.
Therefore, the Wei army did not choose this pass as the direction of attack, but only stationed an army on the periphery.
In front of Wuguan.
Liu Qing rode his horse forward alone and shouted at the pass, "I am Liu Jing, the Prince of Qi, and Liu Qing, a personal guard of General Liu Qing. I have led the reinforcements from Pingzhou to enter the pass and open the city gate quickly."
Listen to Liu Qing's words.
There was a commotion among the defenders on the top of the city.
Not long after, a general stood on the top of the city, looked down the city, looked at Liu Qing, and snorted: "You said they are from Prince Qi's Mansion? You said they are reinforcements, they are reinforcements? What evidence do you have?"
Liu Qing took the sword off his back and said loudly: "This is the sword of the prince. Seeing this sword is like the sword of the prince, this is the customs clearance token. This is the token of General Liu Jinghe. What other evidence do you want?"
?”
Although Liu Qing is young, he is calm, calm and has a strong aura.
After hearing this, the guard snorted coldly and walked down the city gate.
Not long after.
Creak...
The guard general of Wuguan came out with a group of men and horses, and he was very aggressive.
"Are you Liu Qing?"
The guard general walked up to Liu Qing, his eyes full of arrogance and contempt.
The guard general's name is Zhang Nianping, and he is Xiao You's cousin. He has a very good relationship with Xiao You on weekdays.
Liu Jinghe had a bad relationship with Xiao You and had driven Xiao You out of Dongzhou Prefecture, so Zhang Nianping would naturally not look good on Liu Qing and would deliberately embarrass him.
Qin Yu and his party watched quietly from behind.
Liu Qing was riding on the horse, looking down at Zhang Nianping with indifferent eyes, "You have seen this thing, let it go!"
Liu Qing also looked shameless than Zhang Nianping.
When Zhang Nianping heard this, he immediately got angry, "Haha...Liu Jinghe is really worthy of being the bastard around the prince. Even the dogs around Liu Jinghe are so arrogant. Your General Liu hired such a bastard in Pingzhou."
Reinforcements?"
The words fell.
tread......
Liu Qing jumped off the horse, walked straight towards Zhang Nianping, and said coldly: "You say that again?"
Looking at Liu Qing's appearance.
Zhang Nianping was shocked, but with the soldiers on both sides watching, he couldn't retreat, so he shouted: "I'll just say it, your master Liu Jinghe..."
The words have not yet fallen.
Snapped......
Liu Qing rounded his right hand and slapped Zhang Nianping on the face with a big mouth, knocking Zhang Nianping over.
Zhang Nian was lying flat on the ground with a confused look on his face.
The surrounding soldiers looked at each other in bewilderment.
Not to mention them, even Qin Yu, Xiao Nan and Shen Binglan were shocked.
They really didn't expect that Liu Qing, who was only 18 years old and looked a little immature, could be so strong.
In front of all the Wuguan soldiers, Zhang Nianping was given a big mouth.
Zhang Nianping was about to run away, "I..."
匌啷啷......
Liu Qing pulled out the sword and scanned the surrounding defenders, "Seeing this sword is like meeting the prince! It has delayed the prince's important event! I will kill all nine of your tribes!"
As he said that, he pointed his sword at Zhang Nianping and said fiercely: "If you say nonsense again, I will kill you now and sue the prince. Your death will be in vain! You are a piece of shit who doesn't care about the situation!!!"
"you......."
Zhang Nianping pointed at Liu Qing and was speechless.
"Try pointing at me again!"
As Liu Qing spoke, he drew the sword in his hand.
Zhang Nianping was horrified and broke into cold sweat. He backed away repeatedly and said, "Let... let go..."
Naturally, he also knew the current situation, and Liu Jinghe was a close confidant of King Qi.
If the stalemate continues, I will have three advantages and two disadvantages, and I will really suffer in vain.
Mainly because Zhang Nianping really didn't expect that Liu Qing, who seemed very easy to bully, would be so cruel.
Seeing Zhang Nianping, he gave up.
The Wuguan defenders hurriedly opened a road.
Liu Qing put away his sword and glared at Zhang Nianping, "I don't know what you call a dog. If it wasn't an emergency, I would have your head chopped off!!!"
Liu Qing cursed and got on his horse.
Zhang Nianping just listened, stunned and didn't dare to say a word back.
Liu Qing waved his hand, "Let's go."
Later.
Boom, boom, boom...
Liu Qing led Qin Yu's men and two thousand black cavalry, quickly entered Wuguan, and headed towards Dongzhou.
Looking at Liu Qing walking away.
Zhang Nianping pointed at him and said fiercely: "Bah! What the heck! How dare you show off your power to me, this general will sooner or later..."
He said half of what he said.
I saw Liu Qingzheng looking back at him.
Zhang Nianping was so frightened that he broke out in cold sweat. He swallowed back what he was about to say.
